latest was a 5.8k player who would farm near their t3 when they were all missing.

I wish I had a respectable MMR, it feels like I've stopped improving recently, I dunno.


Keeping same MMR(or ranking whatever) means you are improving but as fast as average others. Don't kill the inner optimist, man.

High is all relative. For a trench lord like me, 4k is pretty impressive and would kick my ass. For someone 4K, 5.5 k is really impressive.

It doesn't really matter as long as you are challenged and having fun. I mostly use MMR check of there was a reason I got my ass kicked so bad.

That was my thought exactly. Winners want that ball. They want to push the limit. And sometimes they go to close to the sun.

I find I succeed best with heroes like Bane and Treant. Like, if I can get my allies out of the early-game, they do al'right with whatever garbage items they pick up (as long as it isn't Vanguard as Night Stalker T_T )

they wont be in position to catch you as they dont suspect it happening. killing the creeps will not take long, as this situation will happen in the later stages of the game, so he will be gone quickly enough again. Its still risky if someone is near, but the word unsuspected fits pretty good

Better than vanguard antimage.

Or blood seer who uses blood rage on drow ranger. Because he didn't want her to silence the team...fuck that guy.

I like disruptor or vengeful or sand king. Enigma is also awesome if you think your carry can handle himself in the safe lane.

Try playing Rubick, too. He has the benefit of being a strong support all game long, and can ramp up significantly if they do well.

Also, he's fun as fuck.

yeah thats assuming noones gonna come farm a lane pushed out or that they have no heroes that can initiate at all
very likely situation
